A temporary marriage in Islam is Haram. No ifs, ands or buts. Those so called marriages are void; Now wouldn't that mean he's commiting mass adultry?

I like it. I really like it. I think that the current black, white & grey background are the best colours to go by. Don't get all rainbow crazy puhlease. And may I suggest this nomad in place of Caano Geel's mug (sowwie, that avatar pic is too cute and boyish...we need real nomads yeah? )

Oh! Your too soft. I recommend you beat your children. My little sister and brother have broken our hallway closet(smashing against it as they played tag inside the house :rolleyes: ), the lights while playing hockey or volleyball, and the railing in the shower - hanging from it like monkeys. :mad:

Sayyid, Stop with the annoying spam please.

LOOOL. Libaan, thats proof enough. Hey Castro, I've had suspicions about your sex for a couple of weeks. Why don't you put up your pic and prove your a man?

I can't can't believe it. What the hell does he gain from lying? Liban, Mashallah, I'm so happy for you brother. You don't have to explain yourself to anyone. Those with suspicious minds will always question you and after a while that gets annoying. All you can do is put out your story and how they take it is out of your control.

LayZie, I fed you that lie to see if you can keep secrets. You proved me right. You can't. :rolleyes: P.S. Try to beat my daily gossip column Lainey Gossip. G'luck.

Liban Wow. You speak more somali than me! Dang. Your wife taught you well. P.S. Would u like to adopt my brother? He's a hockey fanatic and I'm pretty sure he'd adore you. I hate it with passion.

Salaam Fartun, Seems like you've got enough on your plate already; with school, home chores & husband to juggle. G'luck. But, have you thought about volunteering? Either someplace your really interested in (big sister, soup kitchens, schools, hospitals) or in the field that your studying. You can also go to the net and look up the main events & activities upcoming in your area and make a weekly date with your hubby or visit the main attractions (parks, museums, zoo, art gallery, etc) that you haven't already. There is so much to do; it's just knowing how to manage your time, prioritize, and organize your day. Something most of us aren't good in. If all else fails, make weekly/monthly dates (set ones) dates with your girls and just have some wild fun! Its always good to look forward to something.

It's cruel to call him a freak since the way he was born is out of his control. How can you judge him on that? I think he used his 'flaw' (as some would call it) to his advantage, so good 4 him. Wijdan, For the sake of my sanity, please change that hideos avatar. If your lazy, I promise to pm you cute ones. JUST CHANGE IT. I keep thinking of my microbiology class- a time which I would rather forget. :mad:

This song is it. Faith Hill's powerful voice just makes you feel. And no, this aint about me. Like we never loved at all; Listen You never looked so good as you did last night, underneath the city lights, there walking with your friend, laughing at the moon. I swear you looked right through me. But I’m still living with your goodbye, and you’re just going on with your life. How can you just walk on by without one tear in your eye? Don’t you have the slightest feelings left for me? Maybe that’s just your way of dealing with the pain, forgetting everything between our rise and fall like we never loved at all. You, I hear you’re doing fine. Seems like you’re doing well as far as I can tell. Time is leaving us behind, (time – leaving us behind) another week has passed and still I haven’t laughed yet. So tell me, what your secret is (I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know) to letting go, letting go like you did, like you did. How can you just walk on by without one tear in your eye? Don’t you have the slightest feelings left for me? Maybe that’s just your way of dealing with the pain, forgetting everything between our rise and fall like we never loved at all. Did you forget the magic? Did you forget the passion? Oh, and did you ever miss me, and long to kiss me? Oh baby, baby. Maybe that’s just your way of dealing with the pain, forgetting everything between our rise and fall like we never loved at all.

Ahura, I know this blatant public reaction is making you weep your heart out, mortified. I know you wish that the ground would open up and swallow you mercifully, I know you feel sucidal and that you may never recover from this. Sweetie, I just want to say... . . . . . . . . . . . . . YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO FEEL THAT WAY. Someone check out the other V-day thread, Ahura admits to not being single. I cannot with good conscious let this get away. If anyone has the email of her faraax, why don't you forward this little message to him.

Ahura, Your making me sick. Why don't you do us all a favour and take your vomit-inducing groveling to private? :mad:

Ahura, I simply refuse to succumb to your dark mood. I'm gonna keep grinning like an id!ot. Anyway, your talking like some scorned woman.

Why is that Ahura? Is it depressing? Sorry luv, I'm just so excited. Two of my best friends (high school) are getting married within two months!

^Uhuh. This is one time your made up (no matter how convincing ) statistics will fail you. And how would you know? You've had talks with these people?

^I said 'get along'. Most divorces are due to communicational problems and misunderstanding each other's needs, expectations whatever. I would think sex is at the bottom of the heap.

Why do people make marriage seem so difficult though? If you've been living with a familiy of 5 or more (typical somalis) and learnt how to adapt and get along with everyone's different personalities, needs, wants than how hard is to get along with a husband/wife? Maybe its just as simple as she claims. Castro; Got the message loud and clear. Your not marriage worthy if you don't have an education, so maaha?

Salaam, BOB, wlcm back walaal. You & ur poems have been missed. Where did you hide under? P.S. It's me Fadumo Farax. P.P.S. Nice poems.

Katrina, Starbucks. Damn the addictive joint. I hate coffee so I'd get those 5 buck blended cremes. I'd feel guilt in my stomach with every slurp of that sugary, cold, yummy drink...*eyes glaze over* Layzie, Poor you. It's pretty warm up here in BC. Besides the store is heated up full blast. Your practically swimming in your sweat if your there for more than ten minutes. Damn I wasn't aware I could ask for that! Thanks for letting me know. I'm usually enraged by the time I'm at the front of the line so I hurry up, order and get out of there. How come you left and they didn't fire you? Have you been using the race card girlie?

Callypso, what I described is the true undiluted african look. The rest had ancestors who played hanky panky with god knows what! Like I said before, your definition of black is beautiful is probably those mixed people. Besides most people always claim that their race/nationality is beautiful. Biased. No, I really really believe it. I can't explain how dismayed I am that you offer the other possibility. Are you suggesting that, given the choice, you'd rather be White? And that this is the norm for the Blacks you know? Which Black people do you associate with? Cally dear, not at all. I'm just saying, by stroke of fate, if you were born Chinese or Idian or White, you'd feel the same way as you do now. You'd think that your particular ethicnity is beautiful/superior whatever. Ma fahante? And the black people I associate with and I've asked those questions are Somalis believe it or not. Beauty is relative anyway.

^I know what the M refers to but what does f.a.q.a.s.h mean? I've come across it a couple of times.

^Desperate? I feel the old femme fatale awakening. Brace yourself old man before I tear you to pieces. :mad:

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I knew this question was coming. No. I just like the lady's show, you should listen to it sometime. Why? You got someone 4 me atheer macaan? Stop distracting me boys.

LOOOL. "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again." You know who made this quote?
